Cure Within Their Grasp.

Poisonous drugs should never be used in such
cases; indeed, it is not necessary that they should
be, for there are set of purely vegetable reme-
dies which have specific and almost marvellous
effect in toning up and strengthening the nerves
as well as restoring nerve power. These remedies
have been prepared in the form of nerve tonic
by Dr. Greene, the eminent lecturer and special
ist in the treatment and cure of nervous diseases
This remedy, under the name of DIR. Greene's
Nervura Nerve Tonic, is for sale at all druggists
at one dollar per bottle which certainly places the
means of cure for all nervous affections within the
reach of everybody
The effects of this valuable remedy upon the
weakened and debilitated system are truly re-
markable, and all who have used it unite in pro-
neuncing it a most wonderful medicine. 1t exerts
its great curative powers by acting directly upon
the nerves, toning up, Strengthening and nvigor-
ating the nervous system, and being perfectly
harmless may be used by all with perfect conf
dence and assurance of cure. Should any drug
gist not have this remedy on hand it may be OBJ
tanned at the doctors Office, "a Temple pl., Bos-
ton it will be sent to any address on receipt of
the price.
We do not as general thing, believe in prais-
ing any particular remedy in our columns espec-
tally unless we know certainly in regard to its
merits. DR.. Greene's Neryura Nerve Tonic, Isl
medicine of so great value and undoubted extra
ordinary virtues in the of all nervous affec-
tons, that we have no hesitation In recommending
1t to sufferers from these Diseases and feel posi-
tive that perfect and permanent cure win result
from its use.

RESULTS OF NERVOUS
DISEASES.
Their Serious and Fatal Influence.
A Source ofIconstant and Inn
minent Danger.
WHY THEY SHOULD BE CURED,
AND now 1T MAY BE DONE.

1t is too often thought that nervous diseases are
not necessarily serious or fatal. This is mistake
Nervous affections are in all cases the most seri-
GUS form of Diseases for the reason that the nerve
power is really the very life principle of the body
and whenever the nervous system is affected
whenever the nerve force or vigor is weakened or
Frustrated. the physical system is in a most dan
gerous condition, and if the trouble is not cured
Immediately absolute loss of health or death will
result.
Thousands of women are weak and nervous sim
ply from exhaustion of nerve power. They be-
come nervous, weak, tired and Frustrated, and
they allow the facilitating nervous disease to run
on, not knowing the serious, not to say alarming
results which are sure to follow, for these symp-
toms are always the precursor of a

Gradual Breaking Down


of the whole system. 1t would seem, too, the
height of absurdity for so many women to suffer
from the distressing effects of nervous affections
and nervous exhaustion and to allow themselves
to little by little fade until death results or they
become confirmed invalids, when the means Of
cure is so readily at hand, and cure so easily Ell
fected. as we shall show.
But women are not alone In the neglect of those
nervous affections which are proving SO disasH
GUS and fatal. Many men are gradually sinking
under the effects of exhausted nervous vitality
without realizing their dangerous condition in its
full extent. They know that they are weak and
nervous; that they tire more easily than formerly
wake unrefreshed from sleep, or perhaps are
seepless, They know that their digestion gradu-
ally becomes impaired, and, in too many cases'
they lay their Frustrated and enervated conditio
to dyspepsia, indigestion, or some other cause,
when it is simply and only exhaustion of nerve
force. Rebuild, strengthen and invlgorate the
nerve power in such cases by the proper remedy,
and the whole system very soon becomes strong
again, the nerves grow steady, unlimited work,
mental or physical, can be endured, and health,

Kansas Produces Nothing But Wonders.
Just now South Central Kansas is all ez-
element about inland sea athing IN the
Salt Lake near Geuda Springs, Kansas. It
is said to be the only inland salt lake IN the
United States except the one in Utah, and is
pronounced by medical experts to contain
properties that make it much superior to
surf bathing.
The springs at that place are also one Of
the strange natural CurIOsities OF this CONT
nent being seven In number and each diff
ferent in mineral constituents, and are all
situated within a space Of thirty feet square.
A complete analysis of these springs has
never been made, but the excitement caused
by the cure of several cases supposed here
tOfOre to be incurable, and notably one OF
them being Addison's disease, for which, 1t
is said by medical works, there Is no cure,
has caused the corporation who have recent
ly purchased the springs to employ Prof. Il.
Il. S. Bailey, Professor of Chemistry, Me-
tallurgy and AfineralOgy, in the Kansas State
University, one of the most eminent Chem
lists in this country, to make a critical guam
titative analysis In order to determine each
mineral Ingredient and the amount of 1t,
contained IN these mineral waters, and as
soon as completed it viii be made public.
In the meantime, the Geuda Mineral Springs
Company, of the town by that names Is be
ing flooded with inquiries from every state
in the Union, and 1t now looks as IL Saratoga
and other prominent resorts are to be for
gotten IN the excitement over this new Kan
sas wonder.

den plunge ana they were tossed high in
the air Tom landed safely on the seat,
while Walter fell between the wheels. The
wagon righted itself, the horses started
again. and before he could extricate him
self Walter felt the wheel crush his right
limb.
The pain was intense, and he sWooned
away. How long he remained In that con-
ditiOn he could not tell, for when ne re-
covered his senses fair Luna was shedding
her mellow rays on his mangled form
stretched there between two great rocks.
1t was some time before he could reeOllect
where he was. He raised his head little
and looked about. He was alone. The
wagon and all were gone. He felt for his
papers and photograph. They were gone.
Moreover, his pockets had been rihed. By
Whom2 by no other than Tom whitley,
who, when finding him unconscious from
his injury, went through his pockets and
finding his own photograph and the paper
and letter already mentioned, resolved TO
let his pUrsuer die Of pain and starvation,
alone on that desOlate mountain tra1ls
Walter sndeavored to get on his feet. He
had almost succeeded, when he fell back
exhausted on a sharp rock and became IN
| conscious.
The hours Of night sped on; then came
the dawn; the sun rose high IN the heavens
and cast its burning rays on the unpro-
tected face Of the unfortunate young man.
He could not resist them, for his reason
had been dethroned and a violent fever
had begun its work. The only thing that
/ broke the solemn stiffness Of the day was
the moaning and raving of the unfortunate.
| High noon came and went. The sun
was just settling down behind the great
| Sierras when the rumble Of a wagon
might be heard in the distance. Palmer
and more distinct became the rumble,
until at length the white top OF an emil
/ grants wagon might be seeing creeping
along the trail. An able-bodied man was
driving the oxen, while his wife sat sew
/ ing on the front seat. In the rear of the
